How To Do: A Dumbbell Thruster

a) Hold a pair of dumbbells in front of your shoulders with palms facing in, your elbows bent and feet hip-width apart
b) OK, now take two seconds to lower into a squat until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
c) Push back up, pressing the dumbbells overhead until your arms are straight. Lower the weights to shoulder level as you squat back down. Do 10-12 reps.
